Joyeux Noel (Dec 14 and 15)
Joyeux Noel captures a rare moment of grace from one of the worst wars in the history of mankind, World War I. On Christmas Eve, 1914, as German, French, and Scottish regiments face each other from their respective trenches, a musical call-and-response turns into an impromptu cease-fire. But when Christmas ends, the war returns. See the 2006 film on Monday, Dec. 14 at 6:30 PM, then join WLU professor emeritus Dr. Art Barbeaux on Dec. 15 at Lunch With Books at noon for a discussion.
